Football!!!


Whether you've ever been interested in the World Cup or not, I'm afraid you'll have to live with football, football and more football during a very long month!

Yes, confirmed. It's THE sports event of the year.

But are you sure you can have a conversation in English when football is involved? Do you know the name of the different players in the field ... pitch ... Oops, what's the right word? What's the name of the people "helping" the referee? Is it to make or to score a goal? Well, perhaps it's time, and before the South Africa World Cup begins on 11th June, to learn or review this vocabulary and to be prepared to have a very interesting and exciting talk about football ... in English.

Do the following quiz first and then check the answers on this vocabulary list.

So Many Great Cartoons, So Little Time...

From Denny: Had a few great cartoons left over from my last posts this weekend here and on The Social Poets, enjoy!



My own L.S.U. won again this week, ranked at number 4 in the country for college football - GEAUX Tigers!



The Republicans are busy denying everyone health care this week...



What else is as good in life without the added fun of lampooning the nukes race?
